added information: to answer your question of how/why,I deleted the /dev/sda1(mbr) partition with gpartedEDIT:CFDISK and remade it with gparted, and did boot-repair. I might be so far in my own hole no ladder or rope can save me.
What if I were to completely unencrypt/decrypt the drive, is that possibly an option?
Or looking up some more stuff, possibly boot to sda5 with a usb that has grub installed and has the key attached?
